Fig. 5. SO₂ inhibits hyperthyroidism-induced apoptosis in cardiomyocytes. (A) Immunofluorescence observation for the expressions of BAX and Caspase3 in each group of H9c2 cardiomyocytes. Scale bar = 50 μM. (B–D) Western-Blot results of changes in expressions of BAX and Bcl2 in each group of H9c2 cardiomyocytes (n = 3). ^{*, #,} and ^& meant p < 0.05 vs. the values in the control, L-Thy, and L-Thy + SO₂ groups, respectively. L-Thy, levothyroxine; SO₂, sulfur dioxide; HDX, hydrogen deuterium exchange.
